[Verse] I ain't got no home, I'm just a-rambling round I'm just a wandering worker, I roam from town to town The police make it hard wherever I may go And I ain't got no home in this world anymore My brothers and my sisters are stranded on this road A hot and dusty road that a million feet done trod; Rich man took my home and drove me from my door And I ain't got no home in this world anymore
Was farming on the share, and always I was poor My crops I laid into the banker's store; My wife took down and died upon the cabin floor And I ain't got no home in this world anymore Now as I look round, it's mighty plain to see The world is such a great and a funny place to be; The gambling man is rich and the working man is poor And I ain't got no home in this world anymore
